Good Places to eat and drink while on vaca....

Recently some of the guys have been out and about... sampling some brews and eats on the eastern shore. Here is a very short list of some good places to eat and drink on your summer vacation...

Jersey Shore

Long Beach Island:The Hudson House (The Hud)
I have been to this place a number of times... it's a great local spot in Beach Haven. Decent beer and a great shuffle board table. It's a very "locals" spot watch out they'll hustle you for drinks playing shuffleboard. 19 E 13th Street Beach Haven, NJ 08008 609.492.9616

Seaside Park South: Surf Taco
I absolutely love this place. Quick and easy, it's a nice place to grab a taco or burrito just off the beach. They also "The Tsunami" Challenge if your really hungry. http://www.surftaco.com/

Outer Banks North Carolina

Corolla: The Bad Bean Taqueria

According to Alfie this place has produced the best burrito he has ever consumed. I'm not sure it's the best but it sure is good. You can also order 24oz Modelo cans while you eat. Awesome!http://www.badbeanobx.com/

Kitty Hawk: John's Drive-in
Oh man! if your in OBX you have to make your way over to this place. The sign says they have the best milkshakes on the island but for my money it's the Dolphin Boat. This place is a blast from the past with all of the attitude you would expect. Get there early as the lines get long with people flee from the beach and locals on there lunch breaks. 3716 Virginia Dare Trl N Kitty Hawk, NC 27949252.261.6227

Kill Devil Hills: Mama Kwans Tiki Bar Yet another good spot on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. You gotta have the Fish tacos! Nuff Said... go and check them out. http://www.mamakwans.com/

Kitty Hawk: The Pelican
One of the best places in OBX to eat or just have a drink. Famous for their wood fired pizzas and southern hospitality. Dishes to explore: Blacked Tuna Bites, Chesapeake Bay Pizza, and the Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers (they are not your typical popper! get ready for some heat!) http://www.blackpelican.com/res/index.html
